Advanced CompTIA Certification Prep
Course requirements:For taking this
instructor led ExpertRating Online CompTIA A+ Certification Prep Course (Advanced) you need Internet access, e-mail, and the Netscape Navigator or Microsoft Internet Explorer web browser. Successful completion of the Basic CompTIA Certification Prep and Intermediate CompTIA A+ Certification Prep courses. A Windows 9x PC that you can experiment on. You will probably want to remove/install various devices, such as video, sound, and modems. Because of the dangers of electro-static discharge (to the machine, not the student), however, we do not require you to tear apart your own primary computer. This is a class that trains you to be a technician - having a machine to play with greatly helps your learning. You can pick up an old PC from second-hand stores, garage sales, or your Aunt Edna's attic.

Testimonials:
The ExpertRating Online CompTIA A+ Certification Prep Course (Advanced) prepares you for the CompTIA Exam and has received
overwhelming positive feedback and reviews from students around the
world. Here are a few:"As a mother,
wife, full time worker and student, these courses seem to be custom
tailored for my needs. Outstanding!!!""Excellent in
very way"

"I found this
course to be extremely helpful. For the most part the lessons were
to the point. I realize that some history needs to be discussed but
at times it seemed there was a tad too much. More to the point would
be nicer. I thoroughly enjoyed the exams and the instant results and
being able to resubmit. This in itself is a great learning tool. I
did not submit much to the discussion areas but found it to be
extremely informative to read. I really appreciate having this
course online and enjoyed it very much. I feel more than confident
when I take the core exams for A+ Certification. I commend all who
were involved in presenting this fine course. Thank you!"

"I now have
taken all of the online courses for the A+. I am going to study a
little further and hopefully get that certification soon! These
three courses had a lot of good information. It got in depth with a
lot of topics, which I found great. Good course overall!"

"Instructor is
awesome! This is far better than the first 2 A+ courses. Excellent
knowledge!"

"I've taken
all three A+ Certification courses and have enjoyed them all. This
course was exactly what I needed, because I live and work in two
different states and am unable to attend a classroom based course,
due to my work schedule. I feel confident in my ability to pass the
A+ exams with just a little more studying and review. And because of
this I'll be back for the Network+ certification course."

"Scott is an
excellent instructor! I have learned much in his 3 A+ classes and
feel confident that I will easily pass the A+ exams."

"Scott was an
attentive and knowledgeable instructor with a writing style
surpassing all other A+ Certification Preparation authors. The
course was of great value to me. Thank you Scott!"

"Thanks for
the opportunity to participate in this on line class. It was very
informative and I feel that I will be successful in passing my A+
test because of the knowledge I gained in this class. Thanks again!"

"Thank you for
this course! It was very flexible with my hours, and gave me enough
time to complete my class work. I would recommend this to any one
who doesn't have time for on campus training or a limited budget!"

"Very good
class. I have learned a great deal and have been able to apply my
skills appropriately due to your course. Thank you very much."
